Watch This Makeup Artist Do a Full Face of Makeup With M.A.C. Lipsticks

Using lipstick for other purposes is nothing too new. (Is anything in 2017, really?) While once upon a time it might've been considered weird or tabboo to put lipstick on your cheeks or lids, it's now pretty norm-core — not to mention a satisfying way to speed up your morning routine without sacrificing your face beat.

In fact, I've come to adore using lipstick in place of blush and eye shadow, as its creamy consistency melts into the skin just like a cream cheek or eye color would, and it saves me from having to hunt for another product in my makeup bag. Plus, I always end up digging the whole monochrome finish it imparts.

Anyway! Enough about me and all my makeup multi-tasking business. I bring this up because as I mentioned, lipstick makes for a lovely multi-use product, though I'll be honest: I've never considered using it everywhere — meaning in place of foundation bronzer, or brow products. But after seeing LA-based makeup artist and YouTuber, Ryan Potter flawlessly construct a full face using onlyM.A.C. lipsticks, I started to reconsider. (And by reconsider I mean I'll more than likely be trying his method this weekend.)

In a video he posted to his Instagram yesterday, September 21, Potter shows his fans how he creates a makeup look using entirely M.A.C. lipsticks. It sounds mighty impressive just thinking about, but after watching the full tutorial, there's no doubt in my mind some of you will race home to your M.A.C. collections to give this a go.

"FULL FACE OF MAC LIPSTICKS...🙃🤣 what do we think? are lipsticks the new foundation? 😭 honestly all in all I don’t think I did THAT bad! obviously this is all in good fun😜," he wrote in the caption before listing out all the exact lipsticks he used. A few that made the roster are "Girls Got Needs," "Film Noir," and "Bare Bling," a very light, flesh-toned hue that he used in place of foundation. Potter used a Beauty Blender to ensure everything was completely blended and without harsh lines, but this wasn't the application I found most mesmerizing. What was most impressive to me was when he pulled out an angled brow brush and began seamlessly filling in his brows in two of the aforementioned dark shades.

The finished look — copper eyes, baby-pink lips, and perfect skin — couldn't be more stunning. Would any of you consider converting to a lipstick-only routine? Because after seeing this, I've gotta' say I'm tempted...
